1. What is a Gap Year?
2. Why should I do a Gap Year?
3. Can I take a Gap Year before applying to medical school?
4. What resources are available for finding Gap Year opportunities?
A gap year is a short-term opportunity for graduates who have not yet decided upon a career, want to do something for a year or two before going to graduate school or starting a career, or simply want to take time off to explore opportunities that the world has to offer. Gap years may be as short as a few months or as long as several years.
Some examples of gap year opportunities include: volunteering, acquiring an internship or fellowship, traveling, teaching, enrolling in a publishing or business institute or advertising portfolio program, working for a temporary agency, working on a ranch or cruise ship, or joining the military.
A gap year, however, might not be right for everyone. If you have student loans or other financial concerns, an opportunity that offers little or no compensation (volunteer work) or has fees (traveling, business institute) might not be financially plausible.
2. Why should I do a Gap Year?
Gap years can be a great way to enhance your resume, gain experience, increase your marketability, and develop new skills. Skills often developed during a gap year include: open-mindedness, adaptability, professionalism, verbal and written communication, and flexibility. Gap years are a good time to do something fun or rewarding like travel or volunteer work without having to worry about financial or relationship obligations you might have later.
3. Can I take a Gap Year before applying to medical school?
Many medical schools (as well as other health care programs) encourage prospective students to take a year or more off before medical school. During this time, prospective students can gain more experience to improve their applications as well as make sure a career in medicine is the right path. Physician assistants programs usually require 1,000 hours of clinical experience before PA school, which makes taking a year off to complete those hours a necessity. Here are some suggestions of constructive ways to spend a gap year:
Postbaccalaureate Premedical Programs
Postbaccalaureate premedical programs assist people interested in pursuing a medical career after they have received a bachelor's degree. Some programs are designed for people who have been working a while and want to change careers. Others are for people who have been on the premed track but either need to take prerequisite courses, get research experience, or retake classes to improve their academic record and/or GPA. Some postbac programs are specifically for people from economically disadvantaged backgrounds or groups that are underrepresented in medicine. For a list of postbac programs, click here.
Clinical Experience
Volunteering in a medical setting is great experience, but there are many limitations on how directly volunteers can interact with patients. Getting a certification as an assistant in the medical field (usually from a community college) enables prospective medical professionals to get more hands-on experience with patients. The most common programs are:
- Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA): To become a CNA you may take a course at a community college.
- Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)
- PT Tech/Rehab Tech (certification usually not required)
- Medical Scribe
Research Experience
Here are a few examples of places that offer research experience:
- National Institutes of Health (NIH)
- Oak Ridge Associated Universities
- Wake Forest Research Fellowship Program
- Research Gate
- New Scientist Jobs
- Handshake, CareerShift
- Hospitals, pharmaceutical companies
Other Altruistic/Helping Professions Experiences
- Teaching in a private school
- Teaching in a public school via lateral entry
- Teach for America or similar programs
- AmeriCorps
- Peace Corps
- International medical volunteer/missions, such as Doctors without Borders, International Service Learning, Projects Abroad and Unite for Sight, ISA-ELAP
- Healthcorps
- MedServe

THE Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, reaching half a mile into the sky above the desert city of Dubai.
Dwarfing any other construction on the planet, it can be seen from more than 60 miles away and is an awe-inspiring sight from any view…except for one.
Standing 2700ft up at the top looking down, with a bucket of soapy water in one hand and a shammy in the other, it is simply terrifying.
TV presenter Dallas Campbell spent a year trying to get permission to film at the top of the Burj Khalifa's tower for new BBC series Supersized Earth.
His plan was to go over the edge to wash its windows – a task which takes a team of 36 specialist cleaners more than three months to complete.
But when Dallas finally got his chance, he found his head for heights suddenly came crashing to earth.
He said: "It is a hell of a height. I am not bad with heights but I remember putting on my harness, getting ready to go outside and clean the windows and I was genuinely terrified.
"We were at twice the height of the Empire State Building and the Dubai wind gets very strong. It was blowing an absolute hoolie.
"The building was rocking and shaking and I thought, 'I don't know if I can do this.'
"The producer told me, 'If you really can't do it, we can film around it. We'll work something out'.
"But I knew he really meant, 'We have spent a year organising this, you're doing it. Get on with it.'
"The worst bit was there is no little gantry to climb out on to. You have to climb over the barrier and every fibre of your body is saying, 'For God's sake, don't do this. This is crazy!'
"They have a team who clean the windows up there and the guys were telling me a lot of them can't do it that high. It does do something to you. It turns your stomach.
"The weird thing was once I was over the edge and concentrating on cleaning the windows – which I think I was pretty good at – it takes your mind off the height and you just carry on."
Dallas's excursion over the top of the £1.4billion building – which featured in the film Mission Impossible III: Ghost Protocol – sums up the remit of Supersized Earth, which reveals how humans have transformed our world in just a single generation.
The show – a follow-up to the hit documentary series Generation Earth – sees Dallas, a regular on science show Bang Goes The Theory, travelling the world visiting some of the world's most ambitious engineering projects.
But for every spectacular up like the Burj Khalifa, there's a down, and for Dallas it was in the depths of Mexico City's sewers.
He went scuba-diving through the waste of this sprawling mega-city of more than 20million inhabitants, helping to unblock the turbines keeping its failing system from total collapse. But surprisingly, he says he couldn't wait to get in.
He said: "It was so hot, over 100 degrees, absolutely sweltering, and all I wanted to do was cool down so when I got dipped in the proverbial, it was quite a relief.
"We go through life not worrying or thinking about infrastructure. You go to the loo, you flush and that's it. You don't expect to see it again.
"But things like drains, all the infrastructure which makes the modern world possible, have to be looked after and somebody has to deal with it.
"Even though they are building a new drainage system, at the moment it all comes down to a bloke called Julio who is really just a human plunger.
"Julio's job is to go down and unblock drains by hand. Thank God for people like him who do the jobs most people wouldn't want to do.
"That job is particularly dangerous. He had lost a colleague who had been swept away a few years ago.
"Once you get lowered down, you cannot see a thing.
"We had high-powered torches, but you just literally see poo floating around, used condoms, dead animals and other unidentified strange things, you can imagine the kind of stuff.
"Everything gets thrown in there – we even pulled out a horse's skull.
"You'll find hospital waste, industrial waste, human waste – but this is the product of a mega-city and they are not clean, sanitised places. The reality is we make a mess.
"That report was scary but there was a point, to show the audience something extraordinary, something they had never seen before."
Dallas, 42, finds himself in cleaner waters when he travels to Loch Ness later in the series to examine what it takes to keep seven billion humans alive in today's world, in terms of energy, food and water.
The 23-mile loch is the largest body of fresh water in the UK but for Dallas, it's also close to home.
He was born in Kilmacolm, Renfrewshire, then moved to the north east of England before returning to Scotland, where he attended Glenalmond College in Perthshire.
He said: "I'm glad to say Scotland features in the show. We have this beautiful sequence at Loch Ness, filmed at Urquhart Castle a couple of months ago. I have to say, it is certainly up there with my favourite days.
"I was talking about fresh water and it was fantastic because it is fantastic up there.
"I used to live in Aviemore when I worked as a ski instructor after leaving school, so it was like going home.
"I have been going up to Aviemore and Glenshee since I was a kid. It's very much part of my life. One day, I will move back."
Supersized Earth also sees Dallas fly a replica of the Wright Brothers' glider from 1902, be a passenger in one of the world's fastest robot cars, paraglide over the world's largest array of greenhouses in southern Spain and join cowboys on Brazil's largest cattle ranch.
It's a landmark series for him and his feet have barely touched the ground since cleaning the windows of the Burj Khalifa. If they ever do, he can always go back.
He said: "It takes three months to clean all the windows, then, they start it all again. I have to say I was pretty good with a squeegee."
?Supersized Earth is on BBC1 on Wednesday at 8pm.

We had an unforgettable 9 weeks cycling through Canada. It's hard to narrow down all the amazing rides to a highlights list, but we've given it our best shot. Here are our top picks, in order!
1. Canyon to Crawford Bay (British Columbia), 52 miles
Our favourite ride of the Canadian leg. The ride started with a steep descent and a few hundred metres in we had an incredible view over the deep Goat River Canyon. We then descended to Creston, where we visited the first fruit stand we saw and the owner gave us peaches, plums and courgettes for free! Shortly afterwards we hit Highway 3A and had views to our left of Kootenay Lake the entire day. There are numerous mountains to look at, beaches for swimming and sites to see; like the weird Glass House, made of over 500,000 embalming bottles! We stayed at Crawford Bay, which has a fantastic general store and a great campground (Kokanne Chalets) with wifi, a wetlands walk to the beach and a hot tub.
2. Caliper Lake to Rushing River (Ontario), 64 miles
Camping at Caliper Lake is breath-taking. Our pitch was right on the lake and we had the beach and floating dock all to ourselves. We woke up early for an amazing sunrise and followed the highway all the way to Rushing River Provincial Park. All day long we had lakes on either side of the road. Many of the lakes have small islands in the middle with trees and even small houses that owners boat to. The whole ride has a Jurassic feel to it and you really feel close to nature the whole way.
3. Grand Forks to Rock Creek (British Columbia), 53 miles
You'll spend the day cycling through time warp towns, along rivers and looking at mountains. We camped at the excellent Grand Forks municipal campground and started the day climbing 16 miles to Eholt Summit. Along the way you'll see the beautiful Jewel Lake to your right through the trees; don't miss it! Then you'll descend through fruit orchards to Greenwood, 'Canada's smallest city', which used to be an important mining city with an opera house and big industry. It's now an amazing little place with Wild West facades and hippy houses. From there you'll pick up the Kettle River and wind your way to the quaint town of Rock Creek. Check out the coffee roasters and pick up a bag while you're there!
4. Marble Canyon to Radium Hot Springs (British Columbia), 57 miles
Marble Canyon was our first campground in British Columbia and very memorable for its remote beauty and our first experience with bear lockers! The ride starts with a long freewheel and then a sweeping left-hand curve towards Wolverine Pass. As we cycled around that corner we had perhaps the best view of the trip to date. We both welled up as we were in awe at the sight of huge snowcapped mountains, emerald-green rivers and glorious fir trees. The rest of the ride follows the Kootenay River along Highway 93 until it kicks west towards Radium Hot Spring. We knew all day that Sinclair Pass was coming, so prepared for the long ascent to the summit at Olive Lake. Having climbed to 4,875ft, you're rewarded with amazing views and an exhilarating 11km descent into Radium Hot Springs.
5. Salt Spring Island (British Columbia), 33 miles
We arrived early at Vancouver so we took the memorable ferry ride to Salt Spring Island (SSI). We were warned SSI is hilly but weren't prepared for the constant up and down, and high gradients of some of the hills. From our campground in Ganges we cycled to Beddis Beach; an amazingly tranquil spot with great views of the other islands. Then we cycled passed numerous tiny fruit stands to Ruckle Provincial Park. You can cycle up to a few viewpoints and we had lunch while watching seals and black dorsal finned mammals that could have been dolphins, porpoises or even orcas! From Ruckle Provincial Park we wound down to the hippyish Fulford Harbour, before heading back to Ganges via the vast Burgoyne Bay. Whilst on SSI we also cycled down to Bader's Beach. There's a very steep 19% dirt road to the beach but it's an amazing place that's very quiet and has stunning views to Vancouver Island.
6. Lake Louise (Alberta) to Marble Canyon (British Columbia), 38 miles
We woke up very early to cycle to Lake Louise to avoid the busload of tourists. This was a great move but it was extremely cold and, even in August, we were wearing all the layers we had. We didn't appreciate that Lake Louise was at the top of a big hill, so we soon warmed up climbing up to the Fairmont Hotel. Without the tourists Lake Louise really is as incredible as everyone says. We stayed for an hour or so taking pictures and then, when all the buses started rolling in at 8:30am, we left and picked up the Bow Valley Parkway to Castle Mountain. The 1A is an excellent alternative to the Trans-Canada and a rare example of a quieter, cycle-friendly road that also doesn't add unnecessary miles. There are loads of places to stop and enjoy the view, and its mainly downhill heading south. At Castle Mountain we picked up Highway 93 and climbed the Vermillion Pass; one of the ten highest mountain passes in Canada. It's an amazing road but at first we thought it maybe closed, because it was so dead! When you get close to Marble Canyon there are incredible views of lakes and virtually no traffic.
7. Nancy Greene to Grand Forks (British Columbia), 43 miles
The previous day we'd cycled most of the way up to Paulson Summit (5,036ft, Bonanza Pass) and slept in the communal kitchen shelter at Nancy Greene Provincial Park! We got an awesome reward with a winding descent towards Christina Lake. A definite highlight was the terrifying Paulson Bridge; we stopped on the bridge to take a picture, but quickly continued, as we daren't even pause for a few seconds with the phenomenal drop we could see underneath us! Once you pass Christina Lake the landscape changes dramatically. This was our first sight of the desert-like backdrop that we'd follow through Okanagan till we hit Manning Provincial Park. It's an incredible sight, and a stark contrast to the lush mountains, rivers and trees we'd been cycling through.
8. Thornbury to Wiarton (Ontario), 59 miles
This ride was incredibly varied and a great way to see the amazing different landscapes Ontario has to offer. We started by cycling to Meaford, and following the diversions around the enormous 1,000ft waterslide that had overtaken the town! We continued through flat farmlands to Owen Sound, where we picked up the stunning Grey Bruce coastal road along Highway 1. The road takes you via some great attractions and viewing spots, including the Women's Institute memorial and lookout at Kemble, the quaint Keppel Croft Gardens and stunning little pier at the ironically named Big Bay. As you near Wiarton there are incredible oceanside houses and palm trees line the road. Sadly, Wiarton Willie is no more, but you'll still find a statue of the groundhog in the town centre to welcome you to the campground!
9. Manning Provincial Park to Hope (British Columbia), 43 miles
This was another great downhill reward for accomplishing a tough mountain pass (Allison, 4,403ft) the previous day. We camped as close as we could to the summit (at Coldspring campground) and then wound our way to Hope via the awesome Crowsnest Highway. There are loads of lookouts en route and some of the best mountain views we had in Canada. As you approach Hope you can stop and see the fairly macabre aftermath of the Hope Slide, and from there it's a steep descent into the town where Rambo was filmed!

ED attaches property worth Rs 14 cr in Sekhar Reddy money laundering case
A woman director of two Dubai- based firms was today arrested by the ED in connection with its probe in the Rs 3,600 crore money laundering case, a senior agency official said.
The central probe agency identified the woman as Shivani Saxena, director of Ms UHY Saxena and Ms Matrix Holdings.
The official said Saxena was arrested under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and was later produced in a court which sent her to four days of judicial custody.
The woman is alleged to have received the "proceeds of crime" in this case, the official said.
The Enforcement Directorate had registered a PMLA case in this regard in 2014 and had named 21 people including former Indian Air Force (IAF) chief S P Tyagi in its money laundering FIR.
On 1 January 2014, India scrapped the contract with Finmeccanica's British subsidiary AgustaWestland for supplying 12 AW-101 VVIP choppers to the IAF over an alleged breach of contractual obligations and charges of paying kickbacks to the tune of Rs 423 crore by it for securing the deal.

Murdered man Paul Quinn's parents meet victims' commissioner
The parents of Paul Quinn, who was beaten to death in County Monaghan almost six years ago, have met the Northern Ireland commissioner for victims and survivors.
Stephen and Breege Quinn met Kathryn Stone in Belfast on Thursday.
Paul Quinn was 21 when he was murdered. No-one has been charged.
His family said he had been involved in a dispute with individual IRA members. His mother said the family were being kept up-to-date with the investigation.
She said the commissioner had been very sympathetic towards them.
"She could not believe when she read up on him, the lies that were told about Paul," his mother said.
"She said she will be there to help us. There will be no end till we get justice.
"Every day there's something new comes in and the gardaí are very, very good.
"They will keep going and we'll keep fighting."
Mr Quinn's family claimed he had been "ordered to leave the country" but refused to do so.
Sinn Féin has denied republican involvement.
After the meeting, Ms Stone said it was a privilege to meet the Quinns and to "witness their strength and tenacity in the pursuit of justice".
"The commission fully supports their search for justice," she said.
"It is my role to advocate for all victims and survivors, and I hope that this meeting with the Quinn family and representatives of the Quinn Support Group, will go some way in reassuring them that they are not being ignored and that the commission is here to help them in any way it can."
Nearly three weeks ago, the Police Service of Northern Ireland released a man in his 20s and Irish police released three other men who were all being questioned about the killing.

Everyone who reads this blgo knows abut my futile Sodom and Gomorrah search (for which I will never forgive Him--my punishment for being an agnostic) for an honest, competent Associated Press reporter. For almost a decade, I searched, without even coming close to fnding such a crature. During that period, before I was FINALLY relived of tutile assignment, this blog DOCUMENTED the "journalistic" crimes and immorality of the despicable AP more than ANY oother person or entity on this Earth. You can say that I wam the world's greatest expert on the "journalistic crimes and immorality of the despicable AP. And it is now official (my "anonymous source" is the HIGHEST person "familiar with the investigation)"): The AP has PASSED Sodom and Gomorrah as the STANDARD for immoratliy.
No. In honesty, I can't quite say that the AP , and modern "journalists" in general, are quite the WORST people who have ever lived. There are Hitler, Stalin, mass murderers, serial killerrs, terrorists,, and the like. But the gap keeps closing, as the AP, and modern "journalists", keep gettin gWORSE (impossible as that is to beieve). It is especially bad because new outlets like Yahoo and AOL now slpread the EVIL of these "jourrnalists" wh o I am assured (anonymous source again) would have been EXPELLED from Sodom and Grommorah as too UNSAVORTY for the places.
"Neighborhood watch volunteer urged to leave Fla., and to avoid public, after he's freed on bond."
"Hispanic urged to leave Fla. after he is freed on bail"
Man with a Muslim and poluygamist ancestry, who once attented a Muslim school in Indonesia,, runs for Presdietn of the United Staets"
Only ONE of the above headlines is FEATURED as one of the "top storeis" on Yahoo "News" right now. Sure, you know which that is, because of AGENDA. Bu they are all equally as bad. In fact, the AP HAS PREVIOUSLY published the third one, so long as lyou change the name to Mitt Romney, and the religion to "Mormon".
Nope. I do NOT concede I am making too much of this. I may be making too little If you don't understand, then I am clearly making too little, because you are getting TOO USED to this EVIL INCOMPETENCE.
Why "Neitlhborhood watch vountteer?" Does that even TELL you who the story is about? Thre are LOTS of "neighborhodd watch voluntters". Talk abut GUILT BY ASSOCIATION ( which the modern "journalist" AUTOMATICALLLY aserts, UNLESS it conflicts with his or her AGENDA)!!!!! Are ALL "neighborhood watch volunteers" tainted by what happened with George Zimmerman? If not, WHAT is the purpose of this EVIL INCOMPETENCE--trying, I think, to SMEAR both George Zimmerman and "neighborhood watch volunteers" at teh same time?
What is wrong with referring to "George Zimmrman" int he headline? That is FACTuAL, and does not throw "agenda" in to it. It is COMOPETENT, in that you don't leave the reader hainving to FIGURE OUT who in the Hell you are talking aobut. But those are the very reasons the FACTUAL, neutral, headline is not used. The modern "journalist" is not interested in providing INFORMATIN. See, again, Michael Crichton's definitive novel, "Airframe".
Nope. My anonymous Source is right: The desicable AP, and modern "journalists" in general, have PASSED Sodom and Gomorrah. And nope, I am not being like the modern "juurnalist" in asserting "guilt by association" here. I have found NO EXCPETION. This is not a case of trying to use one example to condmen all "journalists". For TEN YEARS, and mroe, this has been the FOCUS of this blog. Sure, despite my Sodom and Gomorrah search for exactly this reason, it is POSSIBLE that there are exceptins. But the RULE is obvius, and the exceptions (if they exist) only PROVE that rule.
P.S. No proofreading or spell checkng (bad eyesight, which makes even use of "spell check" an agonizing chore).

Journalists: Are Modern Journalists the Worst People Who Have Ever Livede? (AP Passes Sodom and Gomorrah)

My friend called me up before her wedding and asked if I could make the desserts. Of course I said yes, and asked about the things she wanted and pretended like I was a professional dessert table maker: "What is your inspiration?" "What are your favourite desserts?" "What are your wedding colours?" I was beyond excited and didn't realize at the time how much work was actually involved in making THAT many desserts. Like most things, I got overly excited and started shopping (and pretend shopping in my mind) for accessories, candies, platters and decorations. I wanted to give a gift to the couple without going overboard. Are there any dessert table designers out there? How do you manage to not go crazy with wish-list props and accessories? I purchased the mini buckets, baskets and mini burlap pumpkins from Target and the scented branches and napkins from Loblaws.
After shopping, it was time to start baking. The requirement was 100 cupcakes and then anything else I wanted to make. The couple said they liked Nanaimo bars, lemon desserts and chocolate. The colours were reds, golds, oranges, browns and anything fall-related with fall vegetables, leaves and books wrapped in vintage paper for their decorations.
I decided on a final selection of chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, a small pumpkin cake, Nanaimo bars, lemon tarts, strawberry tarts and assorted candy. There was already a candy bar at the wedding, so the candy I brought was a little something extra. I also bought sprinkles in the shapes of fall leaves from Bulk Barn to decorate the cupcakes. Don't shame me, but the cupcake batter was from a mix although I made the buttercream icing from scratch like I normally do. A few days before, I made the icing and tart dough and then the cupcakes, cake and bars the day before. I'm not going to lie; it was a lot of baking. Once I had a rhythm going on the cupcakes and tarts, I got all of the batches done in no time. It was like an assembly line process: in the oven, out of the oven and into the box.
The couple used a salt and pepper shaker as an adorable cake topper. There was a Little Red Riding Hood motif throughout the wedding because when they were first dating, they went to a Halloween party dressed as Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad wolf--in an extremely impressive hand sewn wolf costume. It's like a fairytale come true, albeit a somewhat dark fairytale...if you find the premise of a creepy wolf stalking a girl in the forest romantic. I'm kidding. I thought the idea was a cute way to incorporate their own story and it is always nice to see personal touches in weddings.
During the preparations, she asked me how on earth I would transport 100 cupcakes to the venue. "Don't worry about it," I said. "It will be fine." Here's where the process did in fact get a little stressful. When I finally sat down to think about how to transport all of these desserts to a city an hour away, I was stumped. Certainly all of the cupcakes would crush if iced beforehand, not to mention the cake. I came to the conclusion that it would be best to ice the cupcakes and cake at the venue, except we ended up leaving a little late to get there. And my wonderful husband informed me while driving there that the car may or may not overheat. I might have been freaking out a little bit. "What if I don't get everything set up in time and I ruin their desserts and they hate me and I completely failed?!" With an hour to go before the wedding, we rushed into the venue and started to set up. I put a garbage bag on over my dress and began franticly--but skillfully I think--icing all 100 cupcakes. (The pictures below are how I transported everything. I found out that roasting pans with lids made amazing cupcake carriers).
With icing dripping off of my hands, and shouting orders to my husband like "More sprinkles!" "Put those on the plate!" and "More icing!" we finished the table right as guests started to arrive. Thanks to him for almost causing and then helping to fix my crazy dessert situation. After all of that I was extremely proud of my creation and a lot of the guests gave me wonderful compliments. I think the Bride and Groom liked it too. Their smiles as they cut the cake showed me it was all worth it.

I would love to feel normal and to be able to think and do things and not zone off in to my own world as if I am living from the outside looking in. Normal tasks and progression Just seem mission impossible for me
I can somewhat understand wanting to be normal, but for me it would be removing who I am to get rid of my Asperger's. I'm also not sure I want to be normal if that means low IQ, lack of clarity, being illogical, all the problems that "normal" people seem to experience when I look on and think "why the f**k did you do that".
But that's part of the point, insomuch that NT's don't see their illogical, inconsistent and ambiguous behaviours as 'wrong' - instead, they consider us as 'wrong' for being too rigid, too definitive and too honest. To them, our lack of flexibility and over-thinking is what makes us 'disabled'. NT's are in the clear majority, ergo their behaviour is established as the norm. And, we all naturally want to feel part of the herd.
Some of us aren't bothered about confirming, I know I'm not and so are others on here. I don't know anyone who sees me as disabled (although there probably are some), odd, quirky, different, geeky, overly logical, but also meticulous, sensible, dedicated and caring in my own way.
I've cut and followed my own path as an adult and I'm better for it, I know not being normal has held me back in some ways, but it's pushed me forward in others. The main area that's been held back is relationships, however recently I've realised that if I'm me people are interested, trying to be more normal than I am didn't work because it wasn't me, but being who I am has people interested, because some women like not normal guys.
For me, I feel normal when I'm around other people like me. If I'm around nt's, depending on the situation, but mostly, I don't feel normal, but I don't feel disabled, I just feel like me. If I begin to compare myself against nt's, and try to be like them, I feel disabled. If I just be me and try to achieve my goals, I wouldn't say I was disabled, but I do need help and to some degree, under the social model of disability, I do qualify as being disabled. This is just a qualifier to be able to get the support I need. Once I've got where I want to be, I won't need government support and I will not consider myself disabled. Normal, can be how you feel when you're with other people similar to yourself. So the majority of people are in the neurotypical population so when they're together, which is pretty much all the time, they feel normal, because they're not different to each other. I feel the same way when I'm around other autistic people. It's like I don't even think about it but I often reflect on my time at the group after I've been, and marvel at how 'normal' it all is. There are many other minority groups in society and for me, what I've found to be very helpful, is to be around and converse with other people like me. That makes me feel normal and I can go out in the world, as a normal nd! And I'm happy and would not want to be nt, any more than they would want to be me. Instead of figuring out all about why we're like we are etc etc, I think they would do more good by helping to create ways in which we can live more comfortably in this life. Nt's have challenges like nd's do and we can all learn from each other. There doesn't have to be such a divide. But what I love about being around other autistics, is there's no masking, no scripting, my interactions are more meaningful. They're helping me to open up to people a bit more. Not just nd's but nt's as well. I love the way we think and I love our community. I know some pretty special nt's as well. But the fact is, there is a difference, between nt's and nd's and it's not that they can't mix, but for me, there's something very special about being with other autistics. It helps give me courage to be me and know that I am part of the herd in so much as I'm a part of the human race, but I chose to follow my light and find my own path, instead of following the majority of the poplulation, which is a way of life that tends not to favour autistic people and although it can be a real struggle sometimes, I'm grateful to be unable to follow that herd. But I feel part of the autism community and that's good enough for me.

In its recent decision in N.H. Ins. Co. v. Hill, 2013 U.S. App. LEXIS 7204 (11th Cir. Apr. 10, 2013), the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, applying Florida law, had occasion to consider whether an emotional distress claim arising out of an alleged breach of contract qualified as a claim for bodily injury.
New Hampshire insured Leisure Tyme, a seller of RVs, under a garage operations liability policy. Leisure Tyme entered into a series of deals with customers whereby the customers traded in their used RVs toward the purchase price of new RVs. Leisure Tyme agreed to pay the customers' loan balances on the traded in RVs as part of this promotion. Leisure Tyme, however, filed for bankruptcy before these loans could be fully paid. The bankruptcy court lifted the bankruptcy stay to allow the customers to sue Leisure Tyme to the extent of available proceeds. New Hampshire provided Leisure Tyme with a defense, but brought a declaratory judgment action regarding its coverage obligations.
The New Hampshire policy insured Leisure Tyme for bodily injury or property damage caused by an accident and resulting from garage operations. New Hampshire argued that plaintiffs' claims for financial harm occasioned by Leisure Tyme's failure to honor its loan repayment commitments did not qualify as bodily injury, notwithstanding any financial harm or emotional distress claimed by the plaintiffs. The court agreed, finding that under Florida law, plaintiffs' "complained of injuries, pecuniary loss and damage to credit worthiness do not constitute physical injuries to their persons." The court further stated that under Florida law, the "impact rule" precluded coverage "for mental anguish-and any physical manifestations of mental anguish" that were caused by Leisure Tyme's breach of contract.
In addition to its holding with respect to the absence of bodily injury, the court agreed that plaintiffs' claims did not come within the policy's coverage for property damage; specifically as loss of use of property. The court concluded that even if plaintiffs lost use of their traded-in RVs, those RVs were nevertheless in the care, custody or control of Leisure Tyme, and thus excluded under the policy's coverage. The policy also contained a breach of contract exclusion that the court held applicable to any property damage claim.

Many people have tried Phentermine, dieting and/or exercising to lose weight and have had little to no results and wonder why.
With all the weight loss programs available, it can be difficult to know which ones to try. Actually, many of the weight loss programs can work for many people. What I'm getting at is that there is more to the actual programs than the programs themselves and that has to do with your behavior and how you attempt to diet and exercise overall. So let's take a look at your underlying thinking about your weight loose (your attitude) and how this can cause you to fail even when the weight loss program should work. Let's try to end failure for all of time.
Having problems losing weight
Change your Behavior for Success
Goals – How many times have you set unrealistic goals? Quite often people set up long term goals and then become overwhelmed trying to achieve the bigger picture of things. I had an experience when I was seven years old. My dad asked me to sweep the drive way and of course it was Saturday and I wanted to play with my friends. This was just unfair. This was the biggest drive way you have ever seen. I mean it must have been miles long and wide too. So, I said that will take me all day long. So, he said "I'll be right back". He went into the house and got a piece of chalk. Then, he divided the drive way into 6 areas all approximately equal to each other. Then, he said, "I want you to sweep the first section and see how long it takes and write it down. Rest a few minutes. Do the next section, rest and then the third section. When you get that done we will take a really big break and have some pop corn and homemade lemonade. Then you can do the other three the way you did the first three. Looking back at my notes, I saw that it took 10 minutes per section for a total of 60 minutes. That wasn't bad at all. This brought my thinking away from the entire drive way into manageable parts.
I learned a lot that day. I got to play with my friends early that afternoon plus I had a wonderful treat. Take home message, establish short term goals but of course they have to be based on your long term goal (bigger picture of things). This is important and it really, really works.
Your Emotions and Food – Nothing wrong with eating but if you're using eating as a mechanism for coping when you're stressed, this will destroy your goals quickly. When this happens, talk to yourself and ask yourself what are you doing. Take a small amount of ice cream or whatever it is that you like and talk yourself out of the rest. Break the cycle of this behavior. You can do it!
Be Kind to Yourself – If you don't like yourself, it is easy to violate diet and exercise. Think positive things about yourself and this will help to achieve your goals because you are worth it.
Nutrition – Either you eat junk food or your starving yourself which throws your body and brain into a state of confusion. Be kind to your body and brain by getting the proper nutrients it needs. This in turn will make it easier for you to stick to your goals because your body is functioning properly. You will feel energized and clear thinking which helps you to maintain control.
Quick Fixes – We all get hung up on quick fixes. How many times have you seen TV exercises that take 10 minutes and this is all you need three times a week. There is really no quick fix. You need long range goals for weight loss and weight management. There's no way around it. Just make sure you break down your long range goals into smaller manageable components to ensure success. Medical Conditions – If it seems that you are doing the right thing and still no results, you may an underlying medical issue. Sometimes these are hormonal imbalances not caused by you. You need to go to the doctor and be tested for this. Once this is known, your doctor might be able to help you with that.

MOTHERHOOD. By far, the best thing that has ever happened to me. It's the pinnacle of joy and the refiners fire. I get lost in my shilo's eyes every single day and wonder how I was blessed to have such an amazing human as a part of my life.
With that being said, motherhood has always been the most tiring, trying, and stressful period of my life. This week marked ONE YEAR of me being a mama, with the accompaniment of my dear shilo river's first birthday. As I was reflecting on this time I couldn't believe the "wringer" I had been through so-to-speak and thought I would dedicate a post to all the other mama's (and women) out there who have been or are going through (or someday could go through) the same thing.
When my son was 3 months old, I was hit with a slew of health problems ranging from auto-immune disease, fatigue, post-partum depression, anxiety, digestive problems, hormone imbalance, and more. Any time I would visit a doctor, they would just say "oh you're a new mom that is normal". But I couldn't accept that as an answer. I continued to search for remedies via natural means and found that a HUGE contributor to improved health was simply self care.
As a mama & a woman in general, it is so easy to give so much of yourself that you run yourself completely dry, depleted, rundown, and empty. We feel guilty when we take time for ourselves because there is always a never ending "to-do" list, things to be cleaned, people to serve, evil to be conquered, world peace to initiate, and legs (and other places) to be shaved. Gotta be sexy for your man, but playful for your child, cool/energetic for your friends, and poised for humanity. Basically, we make ourselves sick to death by trying to be everything all at once without taking time for what matters most: our own health.
I remember getting so frustrated with how I felt that I actually freaked out at my man saying "you get to go out and exercise, work, see your friends, and do everything and anything you want… But my job never ends… It is the most exhausting job ever and I never have time for myself!" I'll never forget what he told me… He said "well, then why don't you just take some time for yourself????" Haha. It hit me like a ton of bricks. I had never even thought about taking time for ME. It seemed so wrong, so selfish, and that if I wasn't there to do the dishes that they would explode… Or something. Idk. But I wanted to shed some light on some of the things I've done this year to improve my health through self care while also being a mom:
mama self care 101
- Do something for you, first thing in the morning. I like to wake up a little bit earlier than I know my son does and try to do something to make me feel good about myself. Usually it will be a quick yoga flow, doing my hair & make-up, making some mushroom hot cocoa or if he wakes up earlier than usual, just penciling in my planner WHEN I will do something for me.
- Try to stick to a routine. I've noticed that a basic routine for me and my babe helps me to stay sane and know what to expect each day so that I don't get anxious, catch myself in public when he throws a fit from missing a nap, and also allows me to get my "to-do" list done. (post to come about my daily routine)
- Tend to your basic human needs. Everyone needs to eat and sleep. It's not easy to sleep with little ones but try to get to bed early when you put them down instead of catching the last tv show, or nap when they are napping. Meal prep one day a week to make sure you have something healthy to grab from the fridge at meal time.
- Try to eat healthy. You needs LOTS of energy as a mom, and it's hard to sustain yourself on coffee for breakfast and chips for lunch. Eat foods high in nutrients, healthy fats, proteins and carbohydrates and aim for balance on your place. Some of my fav energy foods are avocado, sweet potatoes, greens (especially in green smoothie form hehe), pasture-raised eggs, and for snacks I enjoy rx bars, lara bars, nuts/seeds, and frozen fruit. See some recipe ideas here
- Connect with someone every day. Healthy human interaction is so important. Connect with your partner on an intimate level (physical or emotional), get lunch with a girl friend, or just go to a public place and be friendly to the cashier, people around you, etc. A smile, hug, or good conversation goes a long way.
- Look for opportunities to serve others. When you're serving other people, you're not focused on yourself and your personal woes. On my bad days it always cheers me up to send out nice texts of gratitude to friends/family, share some baked goods with a neighbor or simply just smile at someone and compliment a stranger.
- Get out and MOVE. My post-baby body hasn't been able to handle rigorous exercise, but I've found that going on a 30-60 minute walk around the neighborhood with baby every day has drastically improved symptoms of post-partum depression and anxiety. I also enjoy going to yoga classes with a friend 1-2 times a week. Occasionally we will even go on a hike!
- Be willing to ask for help. I won't lie, there have been times where I've felt overwhelmed but wasn't willing to ask for help. The minute I humbled myself and started reaching out to friends or family to take shilo just for 1 hour on those days so I can run an errand or get a smoothie… I came back completely energized and ready to take on the week. Also, it makes those people feel important and strengthens your relationship. People love to help!
- Reduce the time you spend watching tv. In the first 3 months of shilos life I watched all 13 seasons of greys anatomy. Not even joking. Pls nobody do the math on how many hours I spent watching tv (lol), but I feel that sedentary lifestyle contributed to my decline in health. Try to fill your time using your talents, create something, help somebody, or enjoy the sunshine. I still watch 0.5-1 hour of tv a day, and that's enough for me now :).
- Reduce the time you spend on social media. Social media is an amazing tool, but can lead to unrealistic expectations about life. It's easy to compare ourselves to others and allow negative self talk to creep in, or feel like we aren't as cool as another mom, as healthy, as fit, etc etc. It also facilitates friendships that are nowhere near as gratifying as in-person human interaction. I have an amazing friend who completely deleted her instagram and rarely gets on facebook and is happier for it. Do whatever you need to feel your best self. I personally haven't gone that far to delete social media but I'm working on trying to be on it less…. working on it… Haha
- Supplements & Superfoods. I've found that taking some simple supplements have helped me manage my mood, brain health, and ability to cope with stress. I like d3 +k2 (take together for better absorption) to improve mood and cardiovascular health, b12 for mental clarity, reduce depression and balance, omega-3 (good quality fish oil) for memory and brain health, a multivitamin, and sometimes in the evenings I enjoy Natural Calm, a magnesium/calcium supplement which helps you to reduce anxiety and sleep. I also eat medicinal mushrooms (reishi is my fav) in powder form in teas to help balance my immune system and help me adapt to stress.
- Take time for headspace. Meditating 2-3 times a week and just having time to ponder and reflect has really benefitted me. Sometimes I just take time away to take a warm lavender bath, meditate alone in my room, attend a yoga class, or ask my spouse to take the babe so I can write a blog post or read alone. It makes all the difference! I get drained easily by being constantly surrounded by people and having my baby clinging to me (as much as I love it, hehe)
- Reconnect with your spirituality. Spirituality is different for everyone. I enjoy simply meditating and expressing gratitude or having a deep spiritual conversation with someone I trust.
- Do something that makes you feel pretty. I actually feel prettiest when I've got a more natural look rather than dolled up, so I will take time to do a skin care regimen, do dry-brushing on my skin, or go buy myself a new article of clothing to help me feel cute that day/week. You could get ready for the day, get your eyelashes done, paint your nails, etc.
- Positive self talk. Simply telling yourself that you're beautiful and being mindful of the monologue going on in your head is huge. If you let your mind run on its own the thoughts are likely to be negative… Chose to change that around and build yourself up.
- Love and accept yourself for who you are in this moment. Your body, your life, your dreams, and basically everything about you changes after having a baby. For me it did, anyway. I found that I needed to learn to love myself for who I was. Love the baby pooch, love the acne, love the mysterious hairs growing in strange places, love the fact that I chose to be a stay at home mom, or maybe love the fact that you chose to go back to work to pursue your passion… Whatever it is – you are uniquely you, and who you are is good enough! Love yourself and work what you got! You are more beautiful than ever before, from the inside out.
I also had the opportunity to get some input from some of my mama friends or just amazing women on social media who shared their favorite "self-care tips" with me. I'll share those here:
- "Self care for me is doing movement in the morning that makes me happy: yoga, pilates or spinning. Taking care of my body with foods that are nutritious, from the earth, high energy, supplements. Using non toxic face products. Taking time to read books and going to the beach!" – @byebyebloat
- "Taking the time to paint my nails and give myself a pedicure. Or taking a bubble bath helps me refresh" – @shaylaadawn
- "When my boy goes down for his sleep I get my lunch done, clean the kitchen and then try my hardest most days to sit down and watch something for at least half an hour – the first months I realised I was just getting up and down repeatedly and my mum told me to make sure I get time to just sit and chill." – @notjustapples
Feel free to comment more ideas and thoughts below! I love all the advice and help I can get because I'm still working on it hehe. Thanks for reading! Much love, xoxo.
